Suicide of a Soldier.- A soldier who had been for
some weeks confined by indisposition to his bed at Chimborazo Hospital, cut his
throat on Monday night. The reporter is informed that the deceased asked for a
furlough to go home, and not obtaining it, resorted to the desperate expedient
of taking his own life.
